When you name your baby Hitler—or, in this case, Adolf Hitler Campbell—perhaps you are stacking the deck against him. A NJ family is upset that ShopRite refused to personalize a cake with "Happy Birthday Adolf Hitler." The boy's father, Heath Campbell, a "Nazi fan" (his other kids are JoyceLynn Aryan Nation and Honszlyn Hinler Jeannie) and Holocaust denier who decorates his home with swastikas, told reporters yesterday, "There's a new president and he says it's time for a change. Well, then it's time for a change. They need to accept a name. A name's a name. The kid isn't going to grow up and do what [Hitler] did." ShopRite offered to write "Happy Birthday" with room for the Campbells to inscribe it themselves, but the outraged family took their business to Wal-Mart, which apparently supplied little Adolf's earlier cakes. For levity: Top 10 rejected names for Adolf Hitler Campbell ("9. Dahmer Amin Stalin Telemarketer Campbell").




Cue the misguided freedom of speech arguments...
OF COURSE Wal-Mart would.
Well, I mean the kid has it bad enough with a dad like that without also being denied a goddamn birthday cake.
Does Baby Hitler know?
They might as well name their next kid Ryan I Hate My Dad Campbell.
Every time "Hitler" starts to slide into punchline, birthday cake status-land, we should refresh ourselves on the purity of his evil and the things that he did.

Cake? Anyone? Nope.
His parents are so classy.
This kid is definitely going to make it.
Wow, what total white trash. "Hey lookit ME! I'm controvershional!"
...
...
...
Ignoring the cake: What an incredible Jackass that man is.
Can't wait for "babyhitler" to see this...
where is BabyHitler?
Yeah you'd think he'd love the free press. He'll catch this headline soon.
Honestly, dude, with that name, you've denied your son any chance at gameful employment. Why complain about about him not getting a cake?
The parents are either idiots or publicity hounds. Can't they write on a cake themselves?
What to set your kids up for a whole bunch of beat-downs during high school.
"There's a new president and he says it's time for a change. Well, then it's time for a change. They need to accept a name. A name's a name. The kid isn't going to grow up and do what [Hitler] did."
wait... i thought this guy was a Holocaust denier? or... if he admired Hitler, why WOULDN'T he want the kid to grow up like him?
^ Oops. Way to set your kids up.....
gainful
That kid looks cute. Too bad she's going to grow up as trashy as her parents.
I just got some video showing the two shopping for the birthday dinner, it's prior to them ordering the cake.

I don't even consider Hunterdon County NJ..that is practically PA..
Is there a Mussolini baby as well?
Welcome to the true Armpit of America and all it's misguided glory.
I know how the parents feel. My two kids, Cuntface and Shitgargle have also faced the same problem.
F*** Shoprite!
Besides the atrocities committed by Adolf Hitler, he also killed the name Adolf, a wave of the hand with a stiff elbow, and a perfectly fine mustache style.
What does our own BH have to say about this?
If you read the article you will see that they are both on the dole and he refers to those that raised him as his "guardians." It's amazing he isn't in jail for something. Even something simple like drunken driving, selling drugs, anything. He is not a good example of the aryan race. The mother is quite a stunner also. His daughter should grow up fast and kill them both.
Some people shouldn't be allowed to breed.
"The kid isn't going to grow up and do what [Hitler] did."
Um, doesn't he mean "what Hitler didn't do"? After all, this guy's supposedly a Holocaust denier.
Besides the obvious...
...did I miss Obama's pick for Birthday Cake Personalization Secretary?
Seriously, where is the actual babyhitler in all this? Too easy?
If Baby Hitler doesn't comment soon I'm just going back to bed.
WalMart oh WalMart the purveyor of evil. Lack of morals, ethics, honesty.
WalMart who sold out their soul causing a trampling incident in a store to peddle cheap goods. WalMart who supplies cakes to Baby Hitler. WalMart who aids and abeits cheap low cost producing nations which causes the loss of american manufacturing jobs and lack of standards leading to higher environmental abuse.
Yeah we just love WalMart, don't we?
leave babyhitler alone he's trying to enjoy his damn cake.
Perhaps Baby Hitler is just refining his comment, making it just right.
He's going to be the coolest guy on St Mark's Place in fifteen years.
I guess BabyHitler is in fact real.
Easily headline of the year for the Gothamist. Way to go, Jen.
Good question. What is BabyHitler's stand on this article? No comment? Suing for copyright infringement?
Agree, definitely headline of the year - someone should send this kid a card with instructions on how to legally change your name and the filing fee to go with it(make sure to adjust for Patterson's tax increase!)
I wonder what the minimum age to submit for a legal name change is?
At least he's not named Joel Rifkin.
Of course Walmart didn't have any problems with it. They don't know who Hitler was...
I wonder why none of these names are not on the "Top 10 rejected name" list:
Mao Zedung Campbell (#1 mass murder - 60 million)
Joseph Stalin Campbell (#2 mass murder - 40 million)
Pol Pot Campbell (a real slacker having only murdered 1 to 2 million)
Hey, did you notice what these guy have in common besides being mass murders?
there will be no juice at the birthday party.
I really feel sorry for the child. The parents are fools.
Steven:
The parents are MUCH WORSE than fools.
Cute kid.
(cue: a caustic comment from our beloved babyhitler.)
anyway, they should tax retarded names.
Names like these should qualify as child abuse. At least if the kids are burned in the face with lit cigarettes they will get some sympathy.
I agree #13 they are publicity hounds – in the MSN version of this story, the ShopRite spokeswoman, Karen Meleta, says “…the Campbell’s had similar requests denied at the same store the last two years and said Heath Campbell previously had asked for a swastika to be included in the decoration…”
So why would you go back to the same store that has denied you twice before, if not to make a scene?
That’s fine they feel that they have the right to demand a cake, but the SR store also has the right to deem the request inappropriate, and they are most likely not going to change their opinion the following year.
After 9-11, the most popular male name for babies in the muslim world was OSAMA. I don't exactly have a high opinion of anyone who names their kid after a mass-murderer.
He's probably got Klan groups and other losers from all over the country sending him stuff and inducting him into their pinhead halls of fame.
I feel pity for that kid. The parents are clearly mentally ill and I don't mean that facetiously. I wouldn't make a political issue out of this.
Mao Zedung Campbell (#1 mass murder - 60 million)
Joseph Stalin Campbell (#2 mass murder - 40 million)
Pol Pot Campbell (a real slacker having only murdered 1 to 2 million)
Hey, did you notice what these guy have in common besides being mass murders?
They all have the last name Campbell?
Isn't this great!
So he's a "Holocaust denier" but says his son won't grow up and do the things Hitler did.... genius i tell ya!
He looks like that one creepy guy from the McCain audience the night of the election when McCain made his speech about losing and that guy had a little kid too. FBI, keep this man far far away from Obama and me for that matter.
wow, big shout out to BH. how come i haven't seen his post on this yet? Did i miss it?
He has stage fright now that he's having his 15 minutes of gothamist fame.
Hey, it could have been worse for the poor kid. He could have been named George W. Bush Campbell. How about Dick Cheney Rumsfeld Campbell?
Okay, where the HELL is Baby Hitler? Don't make us beg, man!
He'll likely be here shortly, having just posted in the bike clown thread.
I feel like we are all at a surprise party waiting for the Guest to arrive..
No Comment from BH!?!?
Is he milking it for an appearance?
heh there's a thread about BIKE CLOWNS?? where!? Where?!?!
Seriously, is Baby Hitler sipping Mai Tai's in Fiji right now or something?
Obviously Baby Hitler hasn't commented because that's the most aggravating (for the other Gothamist commenters) course of action he can take here.
Wait- I assumed that the father was "BH"
Perhaps it is also inappropriate because Adolph Hitler's birthday is April 20.
Hungryghoast is right. Obviously the most aggravating thing BH can do is to refrain from commenting.
And now that it's been building up so much he couldn't possibly write anything to live up to the hype!
Campbell was quoted as saying "There's a new president and he says it's time for a change. Well, then it's time for a change. They need to accept a name."
Yeah, well there was an old president when you chose the name, stupid.
What does the father do for a living? Does he actually work or just lie around the house all day living in some fantasy world? He doesn't look too smart.
Something tells me he's probably unemployed and living off the taxpayers.
Baby Hitler will grow up, learn how to read (maybe) and eventually sign up on the Ghotamist. She will be surprised and disapointed when she finds out that her username is allready taken...
rdsizzle: She'll also be surprised to learn she had a sex change.
Seriously, I think the parents should be arrested for giving their son have a mullet... let alone his bizarre name.
Let's hope for the sake of the good Lord Almighty these children are going to be home-schooled and not loosed on the rest of civilization ('civilization' having escaped their parents more than it will EVER escape them). With names like those the parents must never choose the option of public education or these children will be in the most grievous danger of their lives...in a multitude of ways.
I will definitely pray tonight for these kids. They are REALLY going to need it.
I'm sending this story to Merriam-Webster in case they are looking for a new definition for f--ktard.
i already made my hitler joke, so i have to say that as someone who voted for a man named hussein, the kid's name is not a big deal.
Something tells me that he will not be sending the kids to a Yeshiva. It's not a matter of money. It's more basic than that.

Take a cue from the original Hitler: send the kid's cake into the oven and let it burn.
i'm not at all fooled by this david duke-like publicity stunt. the parents are racists and they are flaunting it. i mean for f---sake, their daughter's name is what?!
little adolf is SO going to have the crap beat out of him everyday when he gets to be school age - - not only will he learn to hate his parents' idiocy, but he will learn to hate most people too.
maybe this is a case for state authorities to look into. i mean shouldn't we be looking out for this innocent child's welfare?
Where in the world is BabyHitler??
Where in the world is Child Welfare in NJ?
I can't wait till the little guy shows up at his first "t" ball game and this guy named Lashaun Williams is pitching.
I know there aren't any pitchers in "t" ball but the position is covered.
What a moron!!!!!!If you like ridiculous names, why don't you go ahead and change YOUR OWN??? Why do that to a child?
Dad's a coward for not changing his last name to Feinberg.
I ran into his brother the other week and video taped him.

[82] You haven't seen anything yet. Those kids are going to be thoroughly indoctrinated in what those parents believe, like the Nazis being great people, white supremacy and all that. It's surprising that the kids have so much hair, though. Going to have to shave them if the dad wants them to be skinheads. I'm waiting for the next kid, Vizier Mengele Campbell.
Karl Kyle Kevin Campbell. Which will be tastefully tattooed on his forehead. Actually only his initials will be tattooed because the space will not allow the full name to be properly presented in one line. The tattoo will be done at the local WalMart in Pennsylvania in keeping with a family tradition. Either that or his father will do it himself to save a few bucks and use india ink and an old pen knife he used to carve Adolf's third birthday cake.
I think somebody put too much bait in the dipshit trap and we caught us a huge one. If anyone's looking for holiday fundraiser ideas, I would pay 500-1200 dollars for the opportunity to punch Heath Campbell in the mouth.
Baby hitler?
Interesting that his real first name is Isidore on the kid's birth certificate. I guess he couldn't take the ribbing all his nazi friends gave him for having a jewish sounding name.
Wasn't this an episode of OZ?
I feel really bad for all these kids, it's not their fault that their parents are out of their fu*king minds!
I belive in freedom of speech and the right to name your kid whatever you want (Tu Morrow, Coco, etc.) But to name your kids names that will not only get them beat up, but ashamed of themselves for the rest of their lives....you really SUCK as a parent and should not be allowed to have kids....
God help you both because a lot of people on this site would love to kick your as*......
